I am working on the attached file. I need to either subtract or surface trim the corners of the cylinder but when I try to do either some other surfaces that i did not select get trimmed. 6.dwg
View 4 RepliesI have an assignment. I've done all the work until i reached the end of it which is adding 2 cylinders to a weird looking object.
I'm trying to put the cylinder which shares a space between a wedge and a region but I'm unable to subtract it.
I would like to know how can put planar surface to solid object which surface is curved like cylinder for example. When start draw from first point rectangle of planar surface follow x cordinate not that solid object. How to do that simply?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am in need of subtracting Surface A from Surface B to display the surface intersections between the two. I have a geological top of clay surface and a bottom of clay surface where the bottom intersects with the top thus showing holes in a geological clay layer. I am wanting to know if Civil 3D supports the subtracting of two surfaces.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is an easy way to trim one surface to another. Right now, I have two slopes (3:1) that are perpendicular to each other. They meet at a corner and I have extended them past each other so that I could see the intersecting edge. Now I would like to trim them to each other like you would a polyline etc... but I am not sure how to do this.
If I select surf trim, it tells me they are the wrong object type, but they are tin surfaces?
when I try to use rulesurf between 2 circles on an angled plane, the surface twists instead of drawing a cylinder.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm working on this model and I am trying to use the surface trim command in cad 2011, but its not working and its pissing me off. I want to use the trim and use the dome in my model as the cutting edge to cut the parts of the curved walls that fall inside the dome but it is not working. I have the file uploaded.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI m working in autoCAD'13. I have got this drawing from a client. I need to trim these surfaces to get only the outer surfaces. But since these are not intersecting at right angles, i m not able to trim these surfaces.
Please find attached a small part of the concerned drawing. The intersecting surfaces in the drawing have to be trimmed.
I am trying to make a 3d model in autocad. But I have stuck in a problem. When I fillet the surface then I can not trim the extra portion. I am attaching the dwg file. I use autocad 2012.

I'm trying to slice the grey cylinder object in the attached drawing with a curved network surface. Rather than slice around the path of the surface it seems to have just taken a planar slicing plane between the 2 vertical edges of the network surface.
I am developing an assembly, however it needs to move a cylinder to find a specific surface.
How do I determine through simulation that dynamic surface will collide with one another?
I am in the 3d modeling view, and have extruded closed polylines. when i go to subtract the object inside the other it won't subtract the command says <Modeling Operation Error: failure in face-face intersection merging algorithm>
I don't know how to fix it.
How to trim or break the splines at the intersections with solid or surface elements. I need only the parts of the line that can be seen in the given example.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to trim one side of a circular surface by using a projected line that forms my trimming line. The original surface is simply a circle that is swept along a path (like a tube/cylinder). When trimming by using the projected line it wants to cut all the way through the surface (i.e. both sides of the tube/cylinder) but I only want it to cut out one side. Is there a way of allowing this or do I create two semi-circular surfaces, therefore only cutting/trimming in effect one side?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am drawing a fan wheel. The fan blade is curved intersects the shroud, consisting of two cones. I do not know how to trim the blade to the cones. I tried to "split" the blade at the cones and then "delete face" but then the "Go to flat pattern" section on the ribbon is missing. If I suppress the "delete face" feature the "Go to flat pattern" re-appears.

I'm in the process of making a traffic light and have got a bit stuck on the shade around the light.
I first made a profile curve and revolved it to get a kind of cup shape. The profile curve double backs on itself so the revolve is not completely flat.
Next I projected a curve onto the side of the revolve to get the wavy shape of the light shade, and trimmed the excess off.
Now I have my lovely traffic light shape, but the ends where the revolve was trimmed are not attached. (Because I double backed the profile curve)
Is there any way I can close up this gap?
(I've attached some screenshots).
In inventor 2013 I want to extrude a horizontal circle on surface of a bigger vertical hollow cylinder. but what i did it enters into cylinder, and i only want to extrude it on external surface.

I have verified that both entities are solids. I copied them into a new drawing by themselves. I even rebooted my computer--all to no avail. I have attatched a drawing of the two solids.

Here is my file, if you'd like to take a look (the outer portion is my region and I want to subtract everything that's inside it)
I have two boxes stacked on top of each other. On the top I have a rectangle which I want to extrude down through the first box and partially through the second box and then subtract the extruded rectangle from the two stacked boxes. Extrude works fine, but when I use subtract it only removes the area from the first box. The bottom box remains solid despite having "extruded" the rectangle down through the bottom box as well.
I've tried joining the two boxes into a single object before using extrude and subtract, but for some reason the join command won't work in this case.
I've got four objects. One of these objects is a cylinder. I want to remove some material from the cylinder. The material which I want to remove is specified by the other three objects.
Basically:
my target model = cylinder - (sum of other objects)
Where I am joining 2 solids (like plywood sitting in a dado joint), how can I have one solid be carved out where the 2nd solid overlaps it, without deleting the 2nd solid.
what SUBTRACT does but without the deleting.
